A Jedi you want to look like?

Last week, I was at the Malaysian Embassy in Singapore. I saw this Chinese man (in his late thirties to early forties, I think) sporting short and neat hairstyle waiting in the Immigration section. There wasn't anything unusual about him except that he has a neatly plaited hair. His plait of hair originated from the behind his right ear and it was thin, about 1 cm wide. It was long too - reaching his chest!

I thought it was rather unusual for someone like him to sport such a hairstyle. This man was the conservative looking and traditional sort, not someone who will plait his hair and definitely not someone who will plait his hair looking like this!





I told my sister what I saw. She said he could be using hair extensions. Hair extensions?
Why would a middle-age conservative looking guy applying for his passport use hair extensions? I don't think they were hair extensions. I think this guy was for real. A Malaysian Singapore PR Padawan, he is!

May the Force be with your hair stylist...
